Community alert: stop buying Hotels.com

[aybarchu]

It works exactly how it always did.

Use a VPN
Use a Gift card
Don't change details before you book
Change email on booking page
Check-in to the hotel
Change the email
Change the name, address, phone, zip everything
Change the email again
Delete the account

When you change the name, address, etc. Do you put your real one?

I have 5 buyers using it this first month of June with no issues....... So maybe it's just Luck?

And this is risky, yes. but people buy and use at their own risk.

Why was my thread closed and everyone elses still open? If selling it is no longer allowed, please close everyones thread.
Sam's is risky also.

If you dont change the email before you book wont that send the owner a email of the exact place you booked at?

These are different instructions than I've seen/used in the past. I remember deleting the account at the same time as booking.

These may be the good instructions to use now but I'm just saying -- not exactly how it always did. In fact, if you look at the sales threads for all the hotels.com sellers, I've never seen anyone suggest not deleting the account until after check in.

This is why people use foreign currency.
Book, check in.
Book, delete, check in.
Use prepaid if you need to pay a little extras....

I still have alot of buyers and no complaints

The only hotels.com account I've ever bought from here originally belonged to a lawyer lol. I wasn't exactly happy with the seller for that and mentioned it haha. Just didn't sound like the smartest plan really but it did seem to work well at the time.

[aybarchu]

They can charge you after check-out? Also, what about booking and check-in on same time?

[elotro87]

Damn this sucks. I had just found out about this forum and took me a while to try out an account. First one i did worked booked for almost a month ahead without problems. 2nd time i booked 2day b4 stay and was cancelled the nex day. So i went a head and booked right away and no problem so far (currently using it) guess this will b the last time i use the service: (

You should also include that changing the account e-mail now gives the old original account holder a notification i change of e-mail as well.
